Best Bars And Lounges in Rockford

Great food and atmosphere! Can't wait to come back!!! Chicken parm and Short rib ravioli were amazing!!! Very generous portions!

Great ambiance in the high top tables in the bar. Had the “Fire Stew” with great shellfish and tangy broth. Plenty for two, along with a couple of glasses of red wine. Great presentation at the table with a lit fire in the pan. Would get again, in a heartbeat.

Aliano’s Ristorante made my dad’s 82nd birthday dinner absolutely unforgettable! We came with a party of seven, and from the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel like family. Our waiter was fantastic. He was attentive, friendly, and incredibly accommodating. We brought in our own birthday cake, and he happily stored it in the refrigerator until we were ready, even providing a candle so everything was perfect when it was time to celebrate. Those thoughtful touches made the evening extra special. The food was outstanding across the board. On our server’s recommendation, we started with the family-style salad, which was fresh, delicious, and more than enough for everyone to enjoy. My husband and Dad both loved the tortellini, I thoroughly enjoyed the risotto of the day, my nieces raved about both the pesto gnocchi and ravioli, my brother said his pizza was excellent, and my mom’s chicken piccata was perfectly prepared. We finished the evening with cannolis that were absolutely delicious. Between the exceptional service, outstanding food, and warm atmosphere, Aliano’s helped turn a family dinner into a wonderful birthday celebration we’ll all remember. If you’re looking for authentic Italian food and genuine hospitality, this is the place. We can’t wait to come back!

We had a great time and made new friends, will be back
